The Stories so far - part 3


Listen Later

In this third instalment of 'The Story So Far,' Tracy reads an extract from her story 'The Journey's End: giving back Hong Kong' This narrative is complemented by the fifth podcast episode of the first season, 'Anyone for Tea? The Colonisation of Hong Kong,' which delves into how Britain's interest in tea led to Hong Kong becoming a British colony.

Tracy also discusses the broader implications of colonialism, emphasising that Britain's colonial past affected not only Africa but also other regions, shaping global histories and diasporas.

 This episode celebrates Black History Month while also marking the podcast's anniversary. Tracy reflects on the origins and vision of the podcast, sharing how the series was born out of extensive research on the British Empire that didn't make it into her written stories. Through the podcast, she aims to provide a richer, multidimensional experience for both listeners and readers.
